Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My friends
Feel it's their appointed duty
They keep trying to tell me
All you want to do is use me
But my answer
Yeah, to all that "use me" stuff
I want to spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
Oh, you just keep on using me
Until you use me up
Until you use me up
[Verse 2]
My brother
Sit me right down and he talked to me
Oh, he told me
That I ought not to let you just walk on me
And I'm sure he meant well
Yeah, but when our talk was through
I said, "Brother, if you only knew
You'd wish that you were in my shoes"
You just keep on using me
Until you use me up
Until you use me up
[Verse 3]
Oh, sometimes
It's true, you really do abuse me
Oh, you get me in a crowd of high-class people
And then you act real rude to me
Yeah, but oh, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you love me, I can't get enough
And I want to spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
Oh, you just keep on using me
Until you use me up
Until you use me up
[Verse 4]
Talking about you using people
It all depends on what you do
It ain't too bad the way you're using me
'Cause I sure am using you to do the things you do
To do the things you do
